The Commonality of the 'Pros' and 'Cons'...

The debate on whether Malaysia should consider nuclear energy took place recently; not in the cyberworld or the electronic media, but in the conventional print media. The opposing views are there, represented by their respective presidents the Malaysian Nuclear Society and the Physicians for Peace and Social Responsibility projected their views on Is nuclear energy the answer? to Malaysia's energy mix.
But rather than emphasizing differences, the title of this writing suggests to look at the meeting points.
It was to one of the responses of the media and a follow-up to recent statements made by the PM on the need to introduce nuclear energy in the energy mix of Malaysia, and that cooperation with the Republic of Korea should be a welcome possibility.
It took place at the appropriate moment. The International Nuclear Conference 2009 INC'09 and the accompanying exhibition is to begin 29 June at the Putra World Trade Centre, Kuala Lumpur.

Statement to Capitalize on

The position of nuclear power in the country seems to be bobbling up and down, from the point of vew of the public. But if there is one on the up side, this statement from the prime minister while in Jeju on green technologies should be capitalized on. Rarely that 'green' and 'nuclear' be taken together in positive sense.
